Creating User Accounts

which must be an Admin-level account. The other five accounts can be any combination of
Admin-level and User-level accounts.
To create a new user account
1. From the Main Menu, select User Accounts and press Enter.
2. Use the spacebar to toggle the Action field to Add.
3. Enter the new username, assign an initial password, and then confirm the new password.
Determine whether the new user should have Admin or User privileges. Use the spacebar to
toggle between these options. (The next section describes the differences between these
levels.)
The first user you create must be assigned Admin privileges.
4. Highlight APPLY and press Enter to make the user addition effective.
A listing of all user accounts and access levels is shown below the user setup menu. This list is
updated when Apply is executed.
5. To delete a user, toggle the Action field to Delete, enter the username, highlight APPLY, and
press Enter.
You must enter an account’s password to delete it.
6. To modify a user’s password or privileges, toggle the Action field to Update, enter the
username, the old password, and then modify the New Password and/or the Access Level
fields. Highlight APPLY and press Enter.
